736 Willoughby Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11206
The 36-unit, 6-story New Law Tenement building at 736 Willoughby Avenue in Bedford-Stuyvesant, owned by Bec Continuum Owner LLC, has experienced recurring maintenance challenges in recent months, particularly related to heating systems. Between December 2024 and February 2025 alone, there were multiple complaints about heat and hot water issues, including six emergency complaints regarding building-wide or apartment-specific problems.
These complaints often resulted in inspection attempts that either encountered access issues or found conditions that did not violate housing laws. The building has also faced pest control challenges, with several rat activity reports emerging between 2023 and 2025, though some inspections have passed.
A significant cluster of housing maintenance code violations was documented in July 2024 for apartment 4F, including issues with water leaks, mold, and defective plastered surfaces, with several violations remaining open as of the most recent records. The property has had proper bedbug reporting with no infested units reported between 2019 and 2023, and while there were some infrastructure and safety-related complaints recorded in 2018-2019 regarding egress and elevator service, inspections found no violations at those times. The building's elevator system, which had single device concerns noted in 2019, was subsequently resolved, and while there is an active violation for failure to file a 2018 external low pressure inspection from June 2023, this represents the most recent outstanding compliance issue in the records reviewed.
